A/N: I know this is kinda confusing but I looked over what I have written originally and I think the original concept for app 2 might have worked better then I thought. From the reviews for the rewrite people seemed to miss Deeth so I decided to return to the original version. sorry for the confusion.
Buffy and Willow sat in the lunchroom quietly. Xander had been gone a long time and they were beginning to worry.
“Maybe he went home.” Buffy prompted
“I don’t know,” Willow replied, “He would have told me if he was leaving. Hey, maybe we should do something for him.”
“Like what?”
“I don’t know. Something like a ‘we’re glad your alive’ party.”
Buffy frowned.
“You guys never threw me a ‘we’re glad you’re alive’ party.”
“Well, you kinda died on purpose.”
Buffy looked at her strangely.
“And what does that mean?”
Willow quickly looked for an out. She noticed Xander running across the school ground at top speed.
“Hey, look, There’s Xander.” Willow said sharply
Buffy turned and watched him. Something didn’t seem right.
“What’s he doing?” Buffy asked curiously
Willow’s smile dropped. She quickly got to her feet.
“It’s been a while,” Willow replied, “But I think that’s his running for his life face.”
~ Angel’s abandoned mansion – 30 minutes later ~
Xander and Deeth burst through the door. Deeth looks around wildly.
“Okay I think we’re safe here.” Deeth said
Xander sat down and panted heavily.
“What the hell is going on Deeth?” He demanded
“Alright, this is going to be pretty shocking, so I you sit . . . Oh you are.”
“Is it possible to kill a reaper ‘cause I’m getting close.”
“Death is after you.” Deeth said seriously.
“Okay,” Xander replied, “Progress. Why is it after me?”
“I don’t know.”
Xander just stared at Deeth for a long time.
“I am two inches away from stabbing you with your own scythe.” Xander replied in an annoyed tone
“That’s really not gonna help.” Deeth replied.
“Make me feel better.”
“No I mean these things are just for show,” Deeth commented bending the blade, “See rubber.”
Xander got to his feet and wandered around impatiently.
“Oh, great, that’s gonna help against the thousands of reapers after me.”
“I promise I’ll find out.”
“What am I supposed to do at the moment?”
“Well,” Deeth said shifting awkwardly, “I have one idea.”
Xander turned and looked at the reaper.
“Great, what is it?”
Deeth looked at him with a guilty expression.
“You’re really not going to like it.”
~ The mayors office – 1 hour later ~
The mayor was looking over some proposals when Bob appeared. Mayor Wilkins looked up and saw his guilty expression.
“Someone’s a happy camper.” He commented, “how goes the search?”
“We found him.” Bob replied anxiously
“Well that’s great,” Mayor Wilkins said as he stood up from behind his desk, “So we can move on?”
“There’s a problem.”
“Hey, Hey you know I don’t like that kind of talk Mister. My ascension is coming and I need that essence Bob. You promised me that you would get me that essence. I don’t like fibbers.”
“I’m sorry sir It’s just when we found him . . .”
“Yes?” Mayor Wilkins prompted.
~ Angels abandoned mansion – 20 minutes ago ~
Buffy and Willow entered the mansion to find Xander lying on the floor. Willows eyes opened wide as she rushed over. She felt for a pulse.
“Oh god,” Willow exclaimed, “Buffy I-I can’t find a pulse.”
Buffy rushed down next to Xander. She checked over the body.
“I can’t see any injuries.”
Willow moved away from the body and sat near the fireplace. She hugged herself nervously as she stared at Xander’s lifeless.
“Not again,” Willow said, “I-I don’t think I can go through this again.”
Buffy moved over and put her arm around Willow.
“I promise well find out what did this to him.”
Tears began to fill Willows eyes.
“I don’t want him gone Buffy.”
Buffy frowned and hugged Willow tightly.
“Neither do I”
Buffy stared at Xanders corpse seriously. Who ever did this to him was going to hurt badly she was gonna make sure . . .
* POP *
“Okay guys,” Ghost Xander said, “I can explain this just don’t freak out.”
Buffy and Willow Looked up at Xander . . .
That’s when they freaked out
